Intra-Squad This Wednesday!

Okay, folks, get your seat belts fastened, your seatbacks upright and your tray tables in the locked position, the wrestling season is about to take off!!

This Wed. evening, November 4, 7 pm the annual Intra-Squad battle for the starting positions will be held on the mat in Gill Coliseum. Admission is free. Who will represent the Orange & Black for the 2015-16 season? Who will be their back-up? Come and find out on Wednesday! Not sure who to root for? Cheer for any and all good wrestling! Be encouraging.

"The FALL" will be hosting a free Social in Reser Stadium's Loge following the conclusion of the wrestling. Coach Zalesky will introduce the team to the fans.

For those who have never been to a Social, it is easy to get there. Exit Gill and cross the street to Reser Stadium. You will be facing the long east side of the stadium. In the north end of that side, you will find a small gate that is open, a sign advertising the Social should be sitting out front. Enter through the open gate, turn left and go around the post to the elevator. Take the elevator up to the Loge, located on the second floor. Exit the elevator and you are there.

This Social will be free and open to all since we have not yet had a chance to get all our memberships in or put together membership packets. The program will be limited so as not to keep anyone out too late on a week night. There will be a no-host bar and a Nacho and Salsa Bar for a light snack. We'll have a drawing for a few door prizes. Come and join in on the fun!

Speaking of FALL membership - have you sent yours in yet? You can bring it along to the Intra-Squad, FALL Board members will be on hand to accept them. You can even pay with your credit card there.

The deadline for FALL applications is this Friday, Nov. 6. We'll still gladly take them after that, but to encourage you to get it done, we will have a drawing from those whose applications are in by the deadline for a $50 gift certificate to a restaurant! The lucky winner will be announced at our first regular Social, Dec 18, after the Clackamas Dual. The membership form can be accessed at the link found on the right hand side of this page under "Links".

The first official action for the team will take place next Sunday, Nov 8, at the Mike Clock Tournament in Forest Grove at Pacific University's Stoller Center. Action starts at 9 am and lasts all day. Most of the team will be entered, but many will be wrestling unattached, so not wearing an Oregon State singlet. Watch for familiar faces and names.

Hope to see a lot of you at the Intra-Squad on Wednesday!

Go Beavs!
